DePauw noted on Jeopardy! Tuesday

Tuesday, April 25, 2017

Viewers of the television game show Jeopardy! got a dose of Tiger pride in Tuesday’s edition of the program.

In the category of “Similarly Named Schools,” host Alex Trebek offered the answer: “It’s back to Chicago for DePaul, a Catholic university; DePauw is in Greencastle in this Midwestern state.”

The correct question, of course, is “What is Indiana?”

DPU math department Chairman Nachimuthu Manickam spotted the mention, while Jarrod Hunt, assistant professor of economics and management, captured the screen grab above.

Jeopardy! is seen on stations across the country.
